How to Make No-Churn Homemade Chocolate Ice Cream

Okay, I admit it I’m a chocoholic, but so would you be if you tried my Homemade Chocolate Ice Cream. It is so rich and airy and you won’t believe how delicious it tastes. But don’t underestimate its lure–because you, too, will join me in this addiction.

The secret to this recipe is Belgium cocoa powder. Its dark roasted flavor can’t be beat.

Another ingredient you mustn’t short change yourself on is pure vanilla extract. You can buy a good version or make it yourself. Either way, the vanilla will draw out the flavors of the cocoa.

Then, it’s time to put the rest ingredients together. In a medium-size bowl, add whipping cream, some sugar and whole milk. Mix everything together using a stand mixer until thickened.

Time to chill. Just like my Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream recipe this recipe is no-churn. All you have to do is cover tightly with a cover or plastic wrap, then place the bowl in your freezer for about 4-8 hours–more if possible.

Once set, the ice cream is ready to eat. Serve it up in your favorite ice cream bowl. And, then add one more layer of chocolatey goodness by topping your chocolate ice cream with chocolate syrup or grated chocolate wisps.

But wait–if you love this recipe, you’ll definitely love making a Neapolitan sundae made with all three of my favorite flavors: Chocolate, Vanilla and Strawberry Ice Cream recipes.
